Trip booking - Super easy!

Our trip manager and driver was amazing! They were both full of knowledge, happy to help and always provided excellent advise, i'd definitely rate them a 10 /10! Only reason why i provide the rating of 4/5 is because of the accommodation we stayed in and the food provided. The accommodation in Italy was terrible! We had cold room for 4 nights straight and we're layering clothes some other places we're a bit smelly and dirty. Other places we're alright but our stay in Austria and Amsterdam we're the best.

Incredible experience, highly recommend!

The European Escapade was a great value for money trip. With it being 25 days it allowed you to get a good feel for each culture we visited. If anything I recommend the longer trips to the shorter options!

Amazing! 6/5 Stars

Best thing I have ever done. Tough to put into words. Great service, amazing coach driver, amazing tour guide. Got very involved with the group, made all 45 of us feel like one big family. Very organised.
We spent the perfect amount of time in almost every city, travelling to 12 countries in 25 days, and with all the included and additional activities. Perfect experienced. 6/5 stars if possible!
European Escapade gives 7 amazing days in France, 2 in spain, 6 in italy and the rest around the german/austrian area... including 2 crazy days in Amsterdam.

Words cant describe how amazing this trip was.

For the amount of time you spend in each city there is so much information, knowledge, history, culture. This trip should be a write of passage for everyone.
